TSB Cargo
The TSB Cargo is the freight variant of the Transport System Bögl. It was demonstrated at the ITS World Congress in Hamburg in 2021.
Quiet container transport over short distances
Up to 180 containers per hour in each direction, with no overhead line.
With the TSB Cargo, the Max Bögl Group has built a freight maglev that is especially quiet and efficient. It is intended for routes of up to 50 kilometers.
Because no overhead line is needed and the guideway can optionally be elevated, the system can be routed flexibly, including over roads, rivers and other infrastructure. At up to 150 km/h, the TSB Cargo can carry up to 180 containers per hour in each direction, relieving congested freight corridors.
From Sengenthal to Hamburg
Before its appearance in Hamburg, the vehicle was tested on the test track in Sengenthal. At the 2021 ITS World Congress, it ran on a 120-meter demonstration track, scheduled to operate there until the end of November 2021. It then returned to the test track in Sengenthal.
